Jello Biafra is working with esteemed producer/engineer Matt Kelley (Jello Biafra With The Melvins, Jello Biafra spoken word, Digital Underground, Del the Funky Homosapien, Tupac Shakur, George Clinton, The Coup, Zen Guerilla) on producing the upcoming Metal Urbain album on Alternative Tentacles! The tracking and mixing is happening in San Francisco and the resulting record will be out on AT later in 2006.

This is Jello's second non-Jello-related producer job- he produced the stellar Ani Kyd record AT released in 2005.

No, it's not a splint for flying rodents, it's Jello Biafra on the Alternative Tentacles podcast- a.k.a. the Bat Cast! In this first all-Jello bat cast, Jello's talking about his State of the Union, what he's been up to in 2005, and what his plans are for 2006. It's all part of our steadily increasing list of Bat Casts!

That's right, Jello Biafra With The Melvins "Sieg Howdy" is up for a Plug Award as best punk record of 2005! [Also in the running for best non-commercial radio station is KALX,the radio station Jesse the Mail Male djs at]

Operation Ceasefire: Bring Troops Home Now! The free concert and rally was a tremendous success. Over 100,000 people attended the eleven hour protest September 24 at the Washington Monument. This concert was a fun way for us to all come together and demand that this Congress and this administration bring our troops home and start a well over due Ceasefire!

This was a FREE concert, so if you can please send a few bucks to the organizers to help pay costs that would be great.
